Not so very overnight parts from Japan!

Been waiting for quiet some time for these to land, took the absolute piss!! But anyways here they are.....

Honda Access OEM EG6 SiR mats

Full set of 5

Driver's side still has the little white tag on it, even though your supposed to rip it off lol

They looked okay in pics but they are actually MINT!

Absolutely over the moon with them! Got them at going rate too so not to bad lol

Gonna give them a propper clean later on.

I took the front wings off to see what it's like, driver's side has a little bit of surface rust, passenger side has some but not as much, for some odd reason the passenger side is alot cleaner then the drivers side in general lol, maybe the drivers side was parked next to a tree or next to a drain or something, looks like alot more water has been around the drivers side.

Should just be able to grind it off and rust treat it.

Time to remove the sound deadening!

Bought a few cans of MOTIP Freezer spray, its basically dry ice in a can, cheaper and works alot better!

All you gotta do is spray the sound deadening, give it a couple of seconds and then get a hammer or mallet and smack it lol, and the sound deadening is off!

Really clean job, no tiny bits left over or anything, I got the whole Interior done in about an hour lol.

Unfortunately I found a couple of rust spots! One behind the driver seat, just Infront of the seam seal, and the other in the drivers footwell next to a grommet.

I also noticed that the sound deadening holds alot of water underneath, so I'm probably not going to put any back in!

Still need to get pics of the car once it's cleaned up from inside, might even weigh the sound deadening and see how much I've taken out

Finally got some spare time, so I got my arches & sills and took them down to the unit and gave them a "MOCK" up lol

They aren't sat on the car properly that's why the mouldings and sills don't look flush, but they are good fitment.

Can't wait to strip it and make some progress!

Managed to get my self a Genuine Spoon N1 axle back.

Needs a little clean and a quick polish.

Not sure if I'll keep it yet as I had a Spoon N1 on my Jordan, but it'll be good for now.

Another OEM item ticked off the list.

Brand new OEM EG6 VTi/SiR Front lip, Directly from Honda

So today I got some time to go down to the unit, cleaned out all of the sound deadening I took off.

Probably weighed about 4-5kg I wreckon maybe a little more

The freezer spray was pretty good, alot of the sound deadening came off in big pieces like this...

I probably won't be putting any sound deadening back in the car, I found some water hiding under the sound deadening in the drivers foot well.

Also found 2 spots of rust again in the drivers foot well next to the grommets, not sure why the drivers side of the car has seen better days compared to the passenger side.

The way I found the rust was funny I sprayed a **** tonne of spray and I got my hammer and hit the areas of the sound deadening, and I just heard something crumble, I took the sound deadening off and seen a spot of rust, the spray freezes everything and weakens it lol which is something I should have kept in mind kind of glad that I found it tho, atleast It can get dealt with.

Alot of what you cans see in the pics is just some sort of rusty water stain that you can scrape away (drivers footwell) and the rest of the interior looks terrible, will get around to that too.

Looks alot worse than what it is, looks like some sort of rusty water stain, that you can scrape off, the actual rust is in the corner!

Current state of the car!

Bought the other interior light that was missing

 

[Teeky_JDM]

I was going through all of my Sh*t at home and I started to find parts from my MB6 lol

This will be perfect in the EG6 once it's on the road.

Skunk2 Neo Chrome weighted gear knob

Skunk2 Dual bend short shifter, with a spherical bearing

Skunk2 short shifter hardware kit

I've got some more parts laying around from the MB6 build that I need to find lol

 

[Teeky_JDM]

I managed to buy some rare OEM optional extra goodies.

I'll let the pictures do the talking

These will look right at home in the EG

 

[Teeky_JDM]

Been on the hunt for some more JDM goodies again!

I got pretty lucky with finding these brooches and booklets

I've got my self a nice little collection now lol

Absolutely LOVE the HONDA ACCESS Accessories catalogue my favourite so far.

So I've been doing some digging and I've been trying to find as much history of the EG6 as I can, I already know most of the history of the car whilst it's been in England, I was after some info from when it was in Japan.

I rang Honda in Japan at stupid o' clock in the morning and tried to hustle some info out of them, using Google translate to speak to them was the best I could do, many of them found it hilarious lmao

Anyways I asked a few people , and it turns out you can do an online check with the "MLID" which is the Japanese DVLA.

I wanted to know if the car was accident free in Japan, what area it was from in Japan and also I knew it was a car from 1995, I just wanted to know what month, simply because I'm born in '95

So I got a detailed report emailed to me.

The car was first registered in Japan April '95, and it lived in a place called "Adachi" which is pretty much the centre of Tokyo

The car also came back straight and HPI clear, which is good to hear.

Was doing it as you posted that lol

Civic Jordan 258 rebuild

So I have come to own Jordan 258 after purchasing from Keith who previously owned it for around 8 years. My previous Jordan 260 had an accident with a bush and I had to sell it on, but it always had a place in my heart. So when I saw Keith selling his I had to snap it up given the spec, which is...

A friend of mine has a Toyota Ipsum ( Toyota Picnic JDM import) with some mechanical issue, his had it parked up for over a year.

I realised it had the plastic number plate tabs, that I need.

So like a nice guy he is, he let me nick them lol

They fit perfectly in the EG6 JDM bootlid
